On the drums, Dae’s swift, technical style compliments every situation, from jazz and funk to R&B, reggae, and hip hop. Much the same, Dae has approached the compositions and arrangements for his debut with craft and purpose. Dae Han is the unsung backbone behind progressive Honolulu acts and international artists. The go-to drummer for Shing02 whenever the Japanese rapper tours the US and Asia. In 2019, Takuya Kuroda tapped Dae to organize a band to support the Brooklyn-based trumpeter’s gig at Blue Note Hawaii. Every year, Dae organizes a jazz-forward tribute to the late J Dilla.
